The city of Troy had withstood every challenge from the Greeks for 10 years, and it had proved impenetrable. Most of you know the rest of the story: the Greeks devised a wooden horse, hid soldiers inside, and graciously appeared to give it to the Trojans. They didnt brag, they didnt talk smack, they simply went in unannounced. Once inside the gates, they began their fight and took over the place. Southern Cals reign over college football had lasted for 34 straight victories. Networks and news media were poise... Read More

I'm surprised that so few people are talking about Hany Abu-Assad's acceptance speech last night at the Golden Globes. Though I respect his mettle to speak for a free Palestine at perhaps the largest pro-Israeli commingling of wealthy and powerful people, I was deeply disappointed that he did not take more advantage of the exposure to millions that he had in those few moments onstage. In fact, he fumbled his way around the name of the granting party (the Hollywood Foreign Press Association), and misconstrued ... Read More

January 26, 2006 at 1:44pmYeah... oops! Felt like a real journal novice when I read Nimr's comment about "hating when 'people' (i.e.- me)" add a journal on an already-existing topic. Anyway, I agree wi...

Makes you think twice about ever eating meat again! Mad Cow: It is time to be organic and natural Before you feast on that carefully selected Halal burger from your local Muslim grocer, consider this disturbing statistic: 75 percent of Halal meat in America produced in the year 2000 came from pork fed cows, according to Dr. Stephen Emanuel, from Agway Feed Company. The story gets even worse in light of the recent discovery of mad cow disease. The first case ever in America was discovered in Washing... Read More

This is a Refutation of the "Jihad Asghar" claim: Among the erroneous notions aimed at stifling the spirit of Jihad in this Ummah is the idea of 'greater' and 'lesser' Jihads. According to this belief, striving against desires of the self is considered the Greater Jihad, which makes the Jihad of the battlefield the Lesser Jihad. This idea is based upon a story mentioned by Al-Khatib Al-Baghdadi in his book, The History of Baghdad, by way of Yahya ibn al 'Ala', who said, We were told by Layth, on the author... Read More
January 19, 2006 at 4:04pmI am just stating what I have studied and that is the fact many people try to alter or change the definition of Jihad when it has been clearly explained what jihad is/its levels...
January 18, 2006 at 10:48amyou may think waht you want, but the bottom line is that in the QUran, Allah states that the position of a mujahid is higher than any other. If you feel that by stanidng in a wi...

Doctrine of the Imamate We believe that the Imamate is one of the fundamentals of Islam (usul ad-din), and that man's faith can never be complete without belief in it. It is wrong to imitate our fathers, family or teachers in this matter, even if we respect them, for it is just as necessary rationally to consider the Imamate as it is to consider tawhid and nubuwwah. If a man does not believe in it, and supposes that it is not a fundamental of Islam, he should, nevertheless, examine the concept of the Imamate, ... Read More

Mabrouk the wonderful award! Paradise Now won the Golden Globe (Hollywood Foreign Press) Award for best foreign film overthrowing films from China, France and South Africa. I didn't think it will make it to the Golden Globe although it won many ?European Oscars" such as best film award at the Holland film festival, and the European film academy award for the best screenplay. Now let's hope it will be the first PALESTINIAN movie to win in the Oscar's as it has been nominated in it?s Best Foreign Film a... Read More

yes ok I don't understand the title i typed either.. anyway, do the men here like to be asked (asked out, asked THE question, chased, generally asked in terms of what the stage/ pace of their relationship should be) or do they prefer to do the steering/ asking/ pace setting according to their own timing what about those of you who are shy/ lazy/ moody :* and won't be doing any asking - ever - or so it seems. are we supposed to wait .. or dictate ? *note please try to answer without using the word ...
